Answer 1

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To expand 7/10 (5d + 6), we will apply the distributive property, which states that when a scalar multiplies a sum or difference of terms, it can be distributed to each term separately.

Using this property, we multiply 7/10 by each term inside the parentheses:

7/10 * 5d + 7/10 * 6

This simplifies to:

35/10 d + 42/10

Now, we can simplify the fractions by finding their lowest common denominator, which is 10:

35/10 d + 42/10 = (35d + 42) / 10

Thus, the expanded form of 7/10 (5d + 6) is (35d + 42) / 10.
